My Working TV
rockslide26:
I have made a working TV out of bricks. It reads VHS style bricks to play simple short animations. Now, I shall give credit where credit is due. Thanks to IcyGamma for the idea, Trueno for the colorset I used, and Badspot for making Blockland, which I used to make this TV.
I have some screenshots now.
A VHS tape. The bottom part stores pixel information and the top part stores the animation itself.
The tape player. You duplicate the tapes inside to read them. Green starts the video and red stops it.
A screenshot of the default animation. The animation is of a guy waving. You can see the tape in the player.
This build was made 100% by me. I am not going to post a save because I fear it may fall into the wrong hands.

Nice work!
Would have been cooler if you had improved this idea, rather than just remake it though.

Oh, no speakers? :o
Interactivity would be nice. I originally tried to make a Blockland computer that let you load software, but getting it interactive is very hard. Are you gonna try and make it have a clickable screen, because I wonder if thats even possible. I'm keen to see how you do it though!
Good luck!

Thanks! It's all made with default events, though.
